Queensland Calendar of Events – July

Hear ye! It’s time to unroll the scroll on upcoming festivals and events in Queensland.

Abbey Medieval Festival

We start with a perennial crowd-pleaser: the Abbey Medieval Festival at Caboolture.  Grab a tankard of mead, throw on your best pointy hat or helmet and go back in time to the Middle Ages for a day.

This year, the festival takes place across the weekend of 6 and 7 July – and will feature favourites including swordplay, historical re-enactment, cannon fire, medieval markets, falconry, Turkish oil wrestling and the Moreton Bay Joust Championships. Go along for the spectacle of crowds and participants in role-play costume.

 

Jumpers & Jazz in July

Prefer a cosy cardie to chain mail? This winter, Warwick warms up for the 20th year of Jumpers & Jazz in July

 

This 10-day festival from 18 to 28 July is famous for yarnbombing – quirky knits festooning the town’s trees and landmarks.  Beyond the knit-fest, there are jazz parties, vintage cars and train rides and a massive bonfire. Now that’s way to shake off the winter blues!

 

Noosa Alive!

Dive into dance, music, literature and theatre as Noosa Alive! sets the stage for a kaleidoscope of cultural events from 19 to 28 July.

 

A feast of ballet, comedy, performance, burlesque, magic and more return to the northern Sunshine Coast’s chicest resort town – along with a 2-day music festival on Noosa’s main beach.

 

Tickets for events start at just $25 each.

 

Jetty 2 Jetty

Get the whole gang limbering up for Jetty 2 Jetty, happening on the Redcliffe Peninsula on 21 July.

The fun run offers events for all levels of fitness – from the sprinters to the strollers.

In 2024, the event celebrates its 38th year – what a way to work out and see beautiful Moreton Bay!
